The BYC-hosted Queen’s Park Race #3 runs this Sunday, September 18, with the warning at 1330, per Part H and Annex A of the Sailing Instructions. If the BYC RC is not on station, boats should record their rounding and finish times, per Part I of the SIs, when passing between S Mark and the BYC flagpole. [Hint: it’s a shorter course if you finish right next to S Mark, leaving it to starboard.] Submit your finish time as soon as able. This is the sixth, and second-last, race of the Interclub Long-Distance (ILD) Series.
